We are approaches various painful diseases in clinic. Although same disease, it is different to acute, subacute and chronic stage of disease. Therefore, to understanding of tissue anatomy, pathology and physiology is necessary to under-standing pattern of diseases. It is duty work that choice of hot or ice, electrotherapy, choice of adaptable frequency and mathod of exercise therapy etc. During treatment it is important method to choose to treat the client. As treating the client by exercising or treating when the client is resting and seeing if anything else is a problem etc. So what I have approached some of the treatment that a physical therapist could miss during treatment.

Community facilities in apartment complex was developed through combination with residents' needs about housing environmental amenity, marketing competition among construction companies and social trend 'Well-being' . But community facilities and fitness center which are situated in the beginning are alienated by residents because the designers plan community facilities without considering about residents' life-style and preference. In this paper, the study includes present status of fitness center and residents' preference for proper fitness center design. The result presents that fitness center users in apartment complex want a resting space which is already located in fitness center of mixed-use residential building. A resting space provides conditions that users can make up with the community each other as well as they can rest after exercise. And the fitness center users prefer wood as interior finish material of floor and wall in exercising space and resting space because they have a feeling comfortable and splendid.

For the purpose of disclosing the effects of progressive low intensity exercise on the activity of the elderly, questionnaire survey and physical fitness examination were performed on the subjects who were 65 years old or older. The subjects were assigned into two groups using paired matching on gender and age: experimental group (33 persons) and control groups (35 persons). The subjects in experimental group was put on the low intensity exercise program (exercising upper and lower limbs for 12 weeks using dumbbell and lead-packed weight). The results showed that the difference of physical and social behavior scores among activities before and after exercise were significantly higher in all variables of general characteristics, health habits and status, perception, and physical fitness. The findings of this research suggested that the progressive low intensity exercise improves the activities of the elderly, physical activity, self assessed activity, activities of daily living, instrumental activities of daily living, social behavior of the elderly be affected by general characteristics, health habits and status, perception, and physical fitness.

We introduce an introductory engineering education course for engineering majors and non-engineering majors. This course does not require any previous knowledge and experience on engineering. It requires strong curiosities and imaginations on current and future society we live in, where technology is inseparable ingredient. Course encourages attendees to explore fundamental issues of engineering: what is proper technology and what are proper ways of exercising engineering, issues dealt in soft engineering. Since course topics cover many aspects of technology, traditional learning methods fail to be successful and efficient. Various efficient learning methods have been proposed and implemented. We utilize various interactive tangible media, which include simulated thought experiments and physical media experiences. About 20 episodes in short film format are produced based on scenario written according to related issues selected. Physical media like interactive robots are introduced for attendees' stimulated experiences. We summarize our exciting experiments on interactive teaching experiences at Pusan National University which include on/off-line interactions, assignments, projects, and evaluations.

Purpose: The purpose of this research was to determine the effect of an exercise program on the health status and depression in the elderly. Method: The research design was a nonequivalent control group pre-post test design. The exercise program (experimental group) consisted of 22 elderly over a period exercising for 12weeks, 3 days/week. The phone counselling about exercise and health(control group) was applied for 12 weeks for 10-15minutes/day/week. To identify the health status SF-36 was utilized and the GDS was used for depressionanalysis. The data was collected from May 2001 to July 2001. Result: The effect of the exercise appeared significant in the subarea of health status (physical function, physical role, mental health, general health) and depression. The effect of the phone counselling was appeared significant in subarea of health status - bodily pain. The effect of the exercise and the phone counselling did not appear significant. Conclusion: The exercise designed for the elderly promotes health in the elderly and further evaluation about the effect on exercise and phone counselling is needed.

In this paper, we propose a novel sensor system for measuring the arterial pulse in an oral cavity. In order to measure pulse wave in oral cavity, the proposed system is designed with reflection type arterial wave sensor, not by using transmission type arterial pulse wave sensor. Driving circuit through pulse current is designed for solving self-heating problem of LED. The effectiveness of the proposed sensor system is compared with pulse wave between pulse wave of oral cavity and other body parts as well as with characteristic measurements. The experiment shows that the proposed sensor system is adaptive to capturing consecutive and meaningful biometric signals through the variation of pulse wave changes in oral cavity when exercising. The study result expects to design and develop mobile sensors which could be adapted to healthcare devices.

Transmission congestion is one of the Key factor to local market power in competitive electricity markets. Financial transmission rights provide the financial protection to their holders by paying back the congestion cost. However, the market participants who have market power can exacerbate their market power. This paper analyzes the effect of exercising local market power with the rights on the market price. The proposed methodology was demonstrated with the Optimal Power Flow(OPF). Case study is fulfilled by GAMS simulation. The simulation are condusted in case of Nodal Pricing.

In this paper, we propose a new bankruptcy algorithm. The proposed algorithm is comprised of four tasks. Task A is the procedure of soliciting bids, Task B is the procedure of allocating claims, Task C is the procedure of trading claims, and Task D is the procedure of exercising options and holding shareholders' meeting. Tasks A, B, and D are based on Bebchuk(1988) and Aghion, Hart, ad Moore(1992). This paper adds Task C, the procedure of trading claims. Claims are in the form of options which are written on the new shares of the bankrupt firm. Trading options expedites the process of finding the value of the bankrupt firm, and also it mitigates the problem of incomplete capital market by expanding the pool of new investors.

A lot of efforts have been made to improve maritime safety by means of enhancing safety legislation and verifying the compliance thereof. However, with the development of mutual insurance, it is contributing more and more to better maritime safety. The P＆I clubs to be discussed in the paper are now not only exercising controls and providing guidance in event of emergencies, but also keeping close and continuous monitoring over safety operations and conditions of those vessels entered, through their world-wide network and advanced communication, and by professional accident-handling teams. In view of this, it is necessary to discuss the roles of commercial shipping and the close linkage between it and onboard safety practices. The paper looks at first basic principles in maritime insurance, and then focuses on the rules and activities of P＆I clubs and their implications upon shipboard operations.

The functional dyspepsia is a complex disease reaction that ocurs due to the presence of various factors and its pathophysiology has not been clearly verified until now. This disease is diagnosed after the organic diseases are ruled out. Therefore, the main treatments are limited down to compensating for revealed symptoms through exercising the supportive care. The international prevalence of the functional dyspepsia under the Rome I criterior is approximately 25%. For the cases of Koreans, there are very omnifarious symptoms in gastrointestinal disorders and the medical vocabularies which describe the diagnostic standard are not closely associated with the daily vocabularies, thus there would be a lot of restrictions to directly apply the Rome II criterior. However, the Korean Society of Gastrointestinal motility had decided to promote the use of the international standardized Rome II criterior in order for Korea to be comparable to the clinical studies from the other nations. There should be more extensive studies to differentiate the definitions of symptom descriptions from Korea to foreign countries. The extended researches concerning the pathophysiology are highly recommended which in return, would help enabling the reliable treatment techniques for this disease.
